Kind of cool...an author whose book I read saw my review of his book on my book review blog. He wrote a comment to me and put a link of my review on his website. The book was called "Gone in a Heartbeat," and was a true story about his two daughters who were shot and killed in their church parking lot.

Because it:

1) Takes so much time to write and post reviews on the books I've read, and because...

2) I'm just reading them so quickly, and because...

3) Hardly anyone reads the reviews anyway, and...

4) If they do read them, they mostly just want to know whether or not I liked the book and/or recommend it, so...

I am now writing quick reviews on Goodreads.com. Click on the Goodreads banner on the left side of my blog (underneath the pictures of books) and it will go right to the books I've read and my thoughts on them.

About Me

I'm a married mom with one son, Eric (19), two stepchildren and a baby grandson. I met my husband on a blind date set up by friends. We dated for 10 years before getting married six years ago. I grew up in a small beach town in Southern California and have lived in the Midwest since age 25. I love it here! My passions are reading, sports, and animals. Thanks for stopping by!
